Natural Immune Systems Inc
Summary
The goal for this clinical trial is to compare acute immune effects of three nutraceutical ingredients and blends to a placebo.
Description
The goal for this clinical trial is to compare acute immune effects of anthocyanin-rich botanical extracts and blends to a placebo. Stem cell mobilization and homing will be evaluated through monitoring of changes to the numbers of various types of stem cells in the blood circulation. The testing will show whether consuming the active test products lead to changes in stem cell numbers in circulation above the normal circadian changes for each participant. The normal circadian changes are documented on the clinic visit where placebo is consumed. Several different stem cell populations will be…
